Not sure if the guy who is selling this is on some sort of whoopie weed or he thinks he is actually serious.
Very funny the description...

Ya gotta laugh, especially at the scrolling message that says 'Move over all other Telescopes'.
Sorry folks but I have to put a pic of it in here. We need a good laugh!! (note to people with 4" reflectors - I'm not picking on the scope, just the write up on it)
<b>The King of Telescopes!</b>
I love the Heavy Duty Mount too. :P

Yeah, the KING! Why didn't any of you bid??? You all missed out you silly sods! The seller has pulled the plug on their ebay account and now one of NASA's finest is gone for ever.. :(
Thanks for posting that. A nice bit of humor before going to sleep.
Too many superlatives in that item.

Michael, You're clearly not paying attention!
The lucky few who own such a fine scope can make "invisible objects come into sharp focus"! AND
"observe a colony of solder ants marching"
"visit a beehive with the queen and her workers"
AND ask questions about "the strange, the impossible and the unimaginably micro observations"
What more could you want?!
Who wouldn't want to see the invisible objects and the solder ants?

This one probably works just as good and it is only $1.99 US on ebay!
Just needs a good mount. I would actually like to get this one as a collectable but I bet it goes for a large amount.

Laurie! I can't wait!!! I'll just have to leave my scope at home cause it will blow mine away and put mine to shame! ;) lol

But where's the glitter, Ken?
ballaratdragons
29-03-2005, 08:24 PM
Steve, that's a genuine 1970 Disneyland Souvenir collectable!
It doesn't need any Glitter.
I reckon it will go for over $100 US
janoskiss
29-03-2005, 08:44 PM
Yes it does look like it'd be worth something.
But still, without the glitter on the plastic and the ants made out of solder and visiting the beekeepers with the queen, it's just not the same.
